The…read morebrightly colored houses and the smell of the fresh, salty sea made our experience better, however, the service was not great and the food we ordered was un-impressive. We came during lunch time, and with no signs deterring us from ordering pizza, especially with a name like "Pizzeria Fuego", we tried to order pizza and pasta, but were told that pizza is only served during dinner, unless it is the weekend, where they serve it lunch and dinner. Disappointed, but understanding, we ordered red sauce spaghetti and their pesto and muscles spaghetti along with the hummus as a starter. The hummus was laughable. Crudite was only fennel and carrot--no celery, no radish, no peppers, and put the menu description of "hummus with assorted veggies" to shame. The size of the veggies were tiny and thin. Not enough for even half of the hummus. We were tossed, literally, tossed, a paper bag of cold bread before any food was served, and had to ask for balsamic vinegar and olive oil. Servers were slouchy and looked exhausted and unenthusiastic. I understand that we are all human, but some energy and kindness goes a long way. They made me feel like I was an inconvenience and like they were having the most boring day of their entire lives. Once the pasta arrived, we realized ours was served in bowls, while the table next to us had their pasta, the exact same order as us, on plates. Ran out of the same dishes? Garnished with fried basil instead of fresh, immediately robbing the dish of flavor and lively freshness on a sunny day. Unfortunately the red sauce was practically water, though the pesto was ok. I'm not sure if salt is a forbidden ingredient, or if I just prefer my food saltier than the average person, but there was a lacking of salt in my opinion. I am a very kind person and I am always thankful and friendly to the servers and try to be positive at all times, however this experience was very unpleasant and made me feel isolated and seen as "other" simply because I'm not Italian. Unfortunately we will not be returning, nor suggesting this restaurant to the friends we know. However, I am grateful that we tried something new, and perhaps the pizza would have been fantastic if we came later in the day. No hard feelings, just disappointment.

We were having a great honeymoon visit to Procida until we went here…read more The hotel just down the street, the Crescenzo, was amazing and has much better muscles. They were also extremely gracious and accepting of foreigners even though their main clientele were locals (AMAZING LEMON CHELLO). The waitress at II Galenone who was working March 11th around 7:30-8pm came to us and the second she realized we were American she stopped trying to take our order even though we were pointing out items on their menu she proceed to go to another member of the staff and very vocally and with her mannerisms expressed that she did not want to serve us. At the time we were literally the only customers in the entire restaurant. The gentleman was very nice and tried his best to serve us but the damage was done my wife had already notice the woman's reaction and was no longer comfortable. The woman continued to freeze us out no matter how nice we were but was extremely friendly with all locals coming in. She wasn't having a bad night she specifically had a problem with us and made that very well known. The pizza we ordered to go was very tasty. Even though the gentleman asked if we wanted it cut, and we let him know yes as tourists we needed it cut, (we were taking it back to our room) when she brought it back both were whole pizzas not sliced. Incredibly rude and although the pizza was great, the gentleman seemed more concerned with flirting with the rude waitress than anything. Please not we started with Italian and spoke our best it was not a case of A-hole Americans trying to instantly speak English, we were pointing at their menu for Christ sake how hard is that!!!! Made a night on my honeymoon worse and wish we have never went.

Great food, friendly staff, very reasonably priced... and the view is absolutely to die for! A must…read moretry when you are in Monte di Procida!
